Scooby had his personality evaluation yesterday! He did super! He was afraid of nothing with great recovery time. He's a great dog to keep in our breeding program, now if we just had a potential co-own for him in mind. He and his 'gang' has had so many visitors this week. Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday so far... and now Monday and Thursday of next week. We look forward to finding the right home for Scooby and are in the process of that now. The other litter does not take any harassment from him. They are doing super too, very social and bold pups. Maybe there will be another Echo in that litter for me??? Chatter got a clean bill of health from the vet and is ready to try this again! Continue to check out site as we have more litters coming soon. We have some co-own contracts to fulfill and will be doing more of those in the next 2 years than litters at our house. I will be visiting those litters on a weekly (or more) basis and working with the pups along with the super co-owners I have to raise them.

Scooby is doing great - he is working well with clicker training and more than willing to sit for a Scooby snack. We are stacking him on the grooming table, checking his teeth, trimming his feet, etc. He's comfortable on it. He has gone to strangers homes and met several strange dogs with no concerns. He's quite the social little boy. My kids want to keep him, my dad wants him - yes everyone loves Scooby but... he has several homes picked out - I'm sure one will be the right match for him.
Scooby is doing great. Most of the time I'm saying "Scooby Doo, where are you?" He likes to hide!!! He goes outside with me while I'm working in the yard. He's pretty good about following but when he gets tired or warm he comes up missing as you can see in the pictures! He's not afraid of the saw I'm using to cut trees, the big white dog on the ranch, the cats, etc. He loves the activity center and yard toys. He's learning 'sit' with clicker training. He weighs 6#.
Scooby is doing fantastic. WE now have the activity center in his pen with him but most of the time he runs around the house wherever he wants to be. He has a cat tunnel he plays in as well as getting a new toy every day (or two toys!) We have put him in the pen with the 2 week younger pups. Most of the time he does great, just licking them and loving on them but sometimes he decides to grab the scrap of their neck and attempt to 'shake' it. I come in where he can't see it's me and grab his neck, showing him that's what would be happening if there was another puppy his age. He gets upset with it for a minute then goes to start loving on the puppies again. I found him today sleeping next to their pen, so cute.
Scooby Doo is doing so well! At 17 days, his ears and eyes are open, seeing and hearing all around him! He's very observant, alert and active. He loves running around the living room and is already going on trips to the neighbors with us. He laid in bed with me this morning until he decided he was hungry and wanted his mom instead. He's already gone through the neurological stimulus so we are on to bigger things now. He's climbing over things and achieving success in challenges already. And he's so cute - what a face, gorgeous! Be sure to watch for updated pictures on our site.
Ch 74 Ranch Wigglebutt Black Label sired the MASCA Nationals Most Versatile Aussie Winner 2015, Sagonige's Colorado Wild Child owned by Deb Silva, Colorado. Congrats to you both!!!
Scooby is doing great - he's very active which helps him keep from getting too pudgy. He is a very content pup, hardly ever hear anything out of him. He has several new 'friends' in his pen with him. He does not get cold at all (after the first 24 hrs) which is kind of surprising. His eyes are starting to slit open, he's 12 days today. We are doing neurological stimulation with him and he gets to run around in different rooms of the house already (well, crawl around). He weighs 2 # already. The other girls love on him! We are expecting a litter from Chatter and Dexter any day, hopefully they can play together soon!!!
EnV didn't eat breakfast and was anxious all day, so we knew it was today. She started labor around 4:30 pm slowly then pushed pretty hard for 2 hrs from 6:15-8:15 pm. Finally, we call the vet and she wants to see her. Through the mud and muck we drive to the vet clinic on a Saturday night emergency call. Ruh-roh! Scooby Doo, where are you? We originally thought there was a Shaggy in there too, but... We discuss the matter and make the decision to do a c-section. At about 9:45 pm, Little Scooby Doo entered the world, a gorgeous black tri boy. He screamed his head off when he arrived but that didn't last long. He's a very quiet little sweet boy!
While raising a singleton can be challenging, we are up to it. It's not our 'first rodeo'. Fortunately, Chatter's pups are due in less than 2 weeks so he will have lots of friends to play with. We got home about 11:30 pm and both mom and Scooby are doing great! It was a long night because we kept getting up to check on him. Once EnV cried for someone to get her up so she could get a drink of water. We think she's 'milkin' this! 5/24 - Scooby is staying warm with lots of nice fuzzy blankets and a heating pad. We have added some 'friends' to his bed area! He weighs 13 oz. This is going to be a fun summer, spending lots of time with Scooby and his friends 'coming soon'! EnV is in stage 1 labor! The x-ray showed 2 puppies so we are excited to enter them in to the world! Watch for updated info
